Darkness Creeps Within

Days of darkness 
Amoung many 
Reluctant souls
Kept locked away 
Never ending
Emotionally drained
Sadened by all
Suddenly dying within

Containment
Resulting in
Enormous
Eruptions
Pertianing to
Self-hatred

While
Infinous others seek
To be
Happy you
Intergrate yourself with horrible
Notions of pain, suffering, and guilt
